Top of the line BDS or OME also ZONE give those a try,no bad bushing s yet or sag on my BDS system.

 

I stick to BDS alot of the time. Just ordered a 3" for my DD ten min ago

 

whats bds stand for? yeah im a nub

 

BDS is BDS lol

Its called BDS suspension

Edit: it has been rumored that it used to stand for Big Dicks Suspension. In all honesty thats what everyone says.

 

you could do like im doing. get 3 inch lift leafs and put shackles on them for 4-5 inches of lift then get some re 5.5 springs. they will compress down to about 5 inches of lift then run some 33s. id regear if you go with 33s but its cheaper to do it all the first time rather than keep re doing it.

 

i agree w/ Diesel.
when i first lifted my DD XJ i got rough country's 3" lift kit with replacement tubular lower control arms that were beefy. i sourced Procomp's 2.5 soft ride leaf packs out back with 1.5" greasable shackles for a kushy ride. but i still had issues clearing 30x9.5 inch front tires on some of the rocky trails out here in AZ.(stock rubicon moab edition wheels with 245-75-16 goodyear MTR's)
6 months later i ponied up for a 5.5" long arm kit from Rubicon Express. after seat time driving/wheeling both kits i gotta say long arm is the way to go. it is MUCH more smooth and stable when wheeling and handles way better when cornering on the highway. so if you're considering saving for 4.5" why not save a little more and treat yourself to long arms?
i saw a teraflex 4" longarm kit for $650 online + i know a wrangler guy who has this kit and raves about it.
the local offroad supply store told me RE's bushing dilemna was due to "a bad batch" from their 1st run and that their bushings are improved nowadays.. i've had the same set of control arm bushings over a year now (15k miles) no signs of cracking yet.

 

Too much spring, the jeep will be like a tilt-a-whirl around turns.

 

that's twice I've seen this in 5 minutes! lol. I have 4.5" springs with no sway bars and my jeep doesn't lean a bit. Depends on spring rate.

 

Idk what your talking about.......haha

But 4.5" springs, it doesnt lean? I had 5.5 and it was like a roller coaster.

No sway bar on front???

 

nope, I was really suprised too. I don't have quick disconnects and was carrying wrenches with me to the trail. Well decided to not hook em back up in the rain and drove home, couldn't even tell. My buddy's 3" lift has alot more body roll than my 4.5". I mean it's still a lifted truck but it really doesn't lean hardly at all.

 

What brand you have?

 

Rough Country

 

I had them in 3 inch, wasnt fond of them.

 

That's what my buddy has, the 3" rough country lift. It's pretty soft. I have no complaints with my 4.5", it flexes great and does everything I ask it to do.

 

No body roll? or are you honestly so used to it you dont notice it anymore.
